Arrives with cover for common sort of painting (9)
I believe the answer is:
landscape
'sort of painting' is the definition.
(I know that landscape is a type of art of painting)
'arrives with cover for common' is the wordplay.
I cannot quite see how this works, but
'arrives' could be 'lands' (landing is a kind of arriving) and 'lands' is present in the answer.
'cover' could be 'cap' (capping is a kind of covering) and 'cap' is found within the answer.
A single letter 'e' remains which might be clued in a way I don't see.
This may be the basis of the clue (or it may be nonsense).
Can you help me to learn more?
(Other definitions for landscape that I've seen before include "Possible prospect" , "variety of shot" , "Broad view of scenery" , "scene" , "Countryside painting" .)
